Guadalupe Mexico Maria The Virgin

Mary is the Ark of the Covenant

Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary: Elizabeth with John the Baptist in her womb were able to recognize the Word of God that Mary carried inside of her. As the true Ark of the Covenant, are we able to leap and cry out with joy at the sight of Mary in God's temple in heaven? Not only for the victory of Jesus and the Assumption of Mary but also for the hope that we too can participate in the salvation from God.
